The course begins with the economics of investing in private equity, including liquidity of ownership shares, personal wealth concentration issues, passive versus active ownership, and expected returns. The acquisition process is covered extensively and includes sourcing acquisition leads and opportunities; evaluating industry strengths, risks, and regulations; and appraising a business in terms of financial potential. Due diligence topics include review of CPA financial statements, internal financial statements, tax returns; inventory count; and evaluating a seller's motivation for selling and other useful due diligence tools. An overview of valuation models include adjusting "reported cash flow" to normalized cash flow; historical price multiples by industry, size, or rate of growth; build versus buy analysis; and simple discounted cash flow models. Structuring topics include term sheets, stock versus asset sale, forming an acquisition LLC or corporation, structuring seller's consulting pay and earn-out, and creative offers and the final sale agreement. Financing options also are covered, including working with individual partners, banks, mezzanine lenders, venture capitalists, and private equity groups. Students leave the course with an understanding of how to put together a deal, how to minimize overpaying, and how to increase their chances of success in a business acquisition. Course Objectives
2 Page 2 The four fundamental course objectives are to (1) gain an overview of strategic issues driving business acquisitions, (2) understand the business acquisition process, (3) gain an overview of potential funding sources to complete a business acquisition, and (4) gain an understanding of post-closing integration issues. Understanding the business acquisition process includes defining attributes of a good target, identifying potential targets, estimating a target s value in the marketplace, preparing a confidentiality agreement or non-disclosure agreement, preparing a due diligence data request list, preparing a letter of intent, and comprehending critical elements of the stock/asset purchase agreement. The course will focus on thinking, understanding, analyzing, and presenting findings and conclusions based on developing analytical skills for use in a multitude of corporate and personal business acquisition settings. Although the course will touch on the selling of concepts, objectivity and intellectual integrity will be stressed and challenged (via online discussion forums). Required Textbook: 1).

7 Page 7 About the Harvard Business Cases Each student is required to choose to two Harvard cases for in-dive analysis. You can choose any cases that meet your personal & professional interests. Note that the emphases are on: Developing analytical and judgment skills Gain exposures to dynamic organizational and managerial situations Enhance your skills to analyze and defend your opinion as new information or perspectives become available. Incorporate computer modeling techniques (e.g. Macro, what-if analysis, business charting) and Excel spreadsheets where appropriate. What to Expect in a Case: Critical issues are not explicit. Information may be incomplete or ambiguous. Some information may be redundant / irrelevant. There are no correct or wrong answers as long as you can justify / substantiate your positions. Sample Guidance (for illustration purpose): Provide a business report (about 8-10 pages, including cover page, Table of Contents, Reference; graduate school-level quality) that includes: Overview: the issues / business case; the parties involved. Proposed solutions: Strength analysis. Proposed solutions: Potential risks involved in this credit derivative deal. Critique / evaluate on the proposed talk points to clients. Develop a set of recommendations supported by your analysis. Evaluate alternative proposals (pros and cons). Address the implementation issues in an applied corporate setting. Provide some analysis of the bond features in Exhibit 1, e.g. coupon frequency, discount vs. premium bond, etc. Concluding remarks; Reference. M&A ANALYSIS PROJECT (Individual Research Project) 1). Each student should select a single company with easily accessible public information concerning its financial statements as well as information on its business overviews, financial statements, common stock, bonds. 2). Assume that you have been assigned the task of marketing a target company to potential acquirers. You should develop a business report that includes the following information: Executive Summary: state the valuation method(s) used in your analysis of
8 Page 8 the company, how you resolved differences (if any) between the value estimates obtained using each of the different methods, and state a final value for the company on an aggregate and per share basis (i.e. total worth and EPS). Assessment of external environment including forecasts for the general economic conditions, industry analysis and competitive analysis, and company prospects over the next 5 years. Provide an overview of the competitiveness of the company relative to its industry peers at the current time. Identify a list of potential buyers and identify rationale(s) for the firm s acquisition by a potential buyer. Include a list of attractive features for the target company that makes it a valuable takeover target. Perform a valuation of the company, utilizing analytical methods deemed appropriate; use assumptions and forecasts that would be needed to assign a value to the firm. Identify a list of potential buyers and a brief rationale for the proposed fit between buyer and seller. 3). Prepare a typed group report (< = 15 pages) including all of the items listed above. Summarize and organize your data so that it is easy to follow. 4). The final deliverables (Harvard cases and research project) are due at the end of the 10 th session, the same time you turn in the final take-home exam. Please see the course website for sample deliverable for format. Reference:
